✨ gnutls_privkey_set_pin_function ✨

okay so bestie, this one lives in the gnutls manual and it's called gnutls_privkey_set_pin_function(3) — say that five times fast 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

gnutls_privkey_set_pin_function — literally an API function, that's the whole name, periodt

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

#include <gnutls/abstract.h>

void gnutls_privkey_set_pin_function(gnutls_privkey_t key,
gnutls_pin_callback_t fn, void * userdata);

like look at that signature. gorgeous. no notes. 🫶

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

  • gnutls_privkey_t key — a key of type gnutls_privkey_t, aka the main character of this whole situation
  • gnutls_pin_callback_t fn — the callback, the lil function that's gonna get called
  • void * userdata — data associated with the callback, it's giving plus-one energy 🎀

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so here's the tea: this function will set a callback function to be used when required to access the object. it overrides any other global PIN functions — yes, it's that girl, it takes priority 💅

⚠️ note note note: this function must be called right after initialization to have effect. like, right after. don't be late to this party or it literally does nothing 😭

🦋 SINCE 🦋

3.1.0 — she's been iconic for a minute, no cap ⭐
